I could have swore before hf 20 this was 10x-20x higher
Yeah It was much much higher, fuckin thing sucks now
EVEN if we make a system for whales to SELL their claimed accounts, it still wont be enough, this was NOT the solution we were promised, and we need to start demanding Ned spend money on a solution, or explain the long term plan with HF20 and why @ned thinks this is acceptable
Seriously I know there a lot of people Pretending to work hard and im just glad ned Laid Off 80% of steemit inc, I mean WHO THE FUCK WERE those people ANYWAY? Look at the job titles and duties of some of the people Ned laid off, like a useless HR girl who looks fresh out of some terrible SJW college, and you look at what they do, and you could replace them ALL with users on the blockchain, for a FRACTIOn of the cost of full time employees, because there are THOUSANDS of DEDICATED users who would replace the duties of real employees and all you have to do is give them some $100 Ned Upvotes once a week or so and for people in the developing world you will be making them so euphoric, youll end up with people going above and beyond what steem needs. But those spoiled brats from America will never work as hard as starving Venezuelans, its just facts! So lets USE these hungry people and CREATE JOBS. WHY is it that blockchain developers pretend like they are the ONLY people on EARTH who can do what they do.... There are plenty of more qualified developers who simply arent aware of the opportunity on steem... we just need videos on youtube to explain how steem works, and how if Reddit can gain 240 million users, we can too..... OR CAN WE? Well Thats why I made this quick post, to ask why we are so slow with new account creation now after hf20, as if they made it WORSE?.. we are making LESS accounts now than before WHAT the FUCK man.....
We NEED to bring more people to steem to look at this problem and offer better solutions because Ned is just not working and he needs to step down and let someone else lead, because the nuances of steem can ALL be learned within a few months by a talented CEO, but only Ned has those resources to spend, but what is ned doing? Is he WAITING for that 100 million steem to be WORTH more before he spends it?? If he DOESNt spend it while its still worth something, to hire people to build up steem's infrastructure, then he probably will NEVER get to spend that money....
Who does Ned TALK to? Who are hios friends who gives him his freakin ideas? I feel like he has a circle of yes men who kiss his ass and tell him how EXCITED they are for the blockchain, giving him an honestly distorted view of public perception.... he thinks people LOVE steemit when were all just being overly optimistic, and if Ned doesnt actually do his job, well, no one is going to be that excited like we used to be... and sorry but its ALL to do with Money and PRICE... and if Ned did a better job the price of steem WOULD be higher and if steem did a good ENOUGH job, Steem could have led a bul market run and I MEAN that, its not some FANTASY, Steem IS the chain that will onboard the masses into Cryptocurrency RIGHT? SO why WOULDNT Steem LEAD the charge?
Like I have been saying, if we find just ONE eccentric multi millionaire like Kanye West, who can promote steem on instagram for us, more so the BUYING of steem not so much the account creation, people will buy their steem immediately on binance and bittrex and then wait in line patiently for their account OR just show their steem power on Reddit and get an instant account invitation email from steeminvite by @pharesim
If IF and only IF we reformat Steem to a more EXCLUSIVE system where you can always BUY your steem but need to wait a few days to a few weeks, OR KNOW someone with an invite, in order to actually make posts, and Power UP rthat steem you bough on an exchange....
The Kanye West and Kim Kardashian type users would come in with a few million dollars worth of bitcoin THEY would skillfully be shown how to used to Pump steem up, and keep it up, always continuing steem's pumping with their fiat reserves for an extended 1 month period, so everyone in crypto will be wanting a piece of this blockchain that is always wining, no matter what bitcoin does, and then eventually we can lead the entire crypto currency market and people will start using Steem like they did Bitcoin, and find out how much easier it is to use, with free transactions, also near instant...and if Hiveminds/Communities then comes out which it should soon, we can start Importing popular subreddits over to steemit, and THAT is what will bring us all of our best meme users, and shitposters that reddit is FAMOUS for.... Redditr has 240 million users and only ever spent $500 US dollars on Marketing for Stickers....
And by the way check out @disregardfiat and his dConnect using steemconect for creating steem accounts with hf20 for @dlux-io

OH and DOnt forget about all the great Steemians in dveeloping countries, especially the Ghanians who recieve a LOT of unfair ridicule and straight up racism, and everyone knows i'm all about the funny rascist joke but I mean, when people start randomly accusing Ghanians of being "Nigerian Scammers" when theyve done nothing but help their own people get on the steem blockchain and even create Exchanges like https://yensesa.com to succesfuly allow Ghanians to convert steem to their own local fiat currency, so dont be insulting the Ghanians. They work hard and are a MASSIVE user base for steem, and have already shown the world a mini economic miracle story for Steem to receive GREAT Public Relations Benefits from.... And dont start asking me about the "African Charities" I dont run any charity, I happen to just found a niche last year posting about getting whole towns in Ghana onto steem, and at first it was mostly all love but then as time goes on, people start talking so much shit, instead of realizing the great opportunity we have to utilize potentially millions of users who can provide low cost online labor, and can provide opportunities to get whole national universities, and governments to use steem Officially, allowing steem to move MUCH faster into the mainstream in countries WITHOUT the bureaucratic red tape we have in the west. They will also be using steem as their primary banking system in conjunction with MTN Mobile Money, and since they arent allowed to send money using western union to the USA without a special Bank account and paying prices they cannot afford, Steem has already become the defacto system Mobile Money MTN users in Ghana AND Nigeria are using to be allowed to send money all around the world and not just receive it, allowing them to make purchases online outside of their region. This can end up being a billion dollar industry
and you know what? If peopel are going to look at us liek a chairty fuck it let's start applying for Federal Grants at https://grants.gov load that money we get into BTC, buy Steempower on blocktrades bittrex or binance and just start handing out Upvotes to people doing cool projects and build a front end for volunteers to actually get paid for doing good work. There are billions of dollars for us in the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation that we can use to PUMP the price of steem up helping EVERYONE if we do this right! Go on https://grants.gov and if you are not a US citizen, dont worry just do all the steps you can and work with me or any other US citizen on steem, find us on https://steemspeak.com and we can apply for grants together, and just remember how much good you can do for steem and for your mission statement whatever that may be, because helping people looks SO good for the steem blockchain...
When people like @surfyogi and their good deeds in Nigeria for example are caught by larger investors, it can cause a chain of reactions that ends up pitting billionaires and millionaires against each other to compete to see how much good they can do for how little money..... and with steem , if you buy steempower now,m while its cheap, and use it to upvote and delegate users who perform charitable acts, you can end up earning money from curation and hopefully from the price of steem going up, and you can power down your initial investment later on and end up making a profit from charity! https://solicitingpower.com is a website @roelandp created that features charities on steem like @wafrica and @artzone by @surfyogi and when these organizations start getting the attention of News Organizations and have full time interns and physical Headquarters, then we can really see Steem picked up by MANY charitable organizations which means Big business for us long term, like imagine if the Red Cross decided to start using steem to keep track of their logistics using a Blockchain, and to allow people to upvote when the red cross is doing an event or performing their duties around the world, well now they can post on steem and people can upvote and earn curation!
With the right front end for steem, we can really market steem to organizations like the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation and imagine if they bought a milion Steempower to use to upvote users who helped with their mission statement.
Anyway I hope we can find a solution for the HF20 limit on new accounts by reformatting Steem as an EXCLUSIVE Bloickchain that is INVITE only.
